A Lesson Taught the East.

Sank Rapids Free Press.
To-day the st. Paul GLOBE is not ex-

may be of infinite variety this season so
long as the traditional orange blossoms
and white veil are included somewhere.
The materials may be French faille,
ottoman, satin, plain and fancy velvetS
or brocadeS. Light tissues, such as lace,
tulle or gauze, are used with these rich
fabrics, arranged in aprons, plated
panels or narrow flounceS. Old lace
wells that reach just below the shoulder
are worn. Very long wells are of new
lace or silk blonde. A particular good
gown for young bride is of repped silk,
with tablier front of pearl fringe with
melted heading and long separate strands
reaching from the waist to the foot.
There is also a satin gown with a
pointed waist and neck, half sleeve: and
a straight train, with its fulneSS widely

flowers may be omitted altogether if the
bride objects to them. The veil, what

ent as wedding gifts. A prayer-book is
carried in the hand by many instead of
a bouquet. In such case, if the bride
is of the High church, she may approach
the altar without gloves.

made of medium size and has cuff in

with braid. A white Russia duck vest,
six buttons, goes with this coat. The
trousers, lackaday, will be very large,
and just as ostentatiOus in their own
sweet way as the coat and vest. They
will not necessarily be furnished with a
spring, however. The cutaway coat has
front. The general interest awakened ID
in yachting is undoubtedly responsible
for the complete revival of the rolling
brim in hats. Next year they will roll
so much that the crown will be alto
gether dispensed with, as it could not be
seen if it were present.
These are indications, of course, of
but few of the multidinous things that
lure the shoppers from their homes to
the counters and show cases. But other

cast iron clerk not to send for
an ambulance when he observes lady's
actions as she decides to purchase.
First she. turns half round, throws her
arms up in the air and then down to her
hips; she enters into such contortions
that the sympathetic clerk thinks she
has been taken with a fit. After the
most awkward spuirming imaginable,
accompanied with wild swaying of her
dress, she resumes her normal attitude
smiling and rosy from her eyertion, and
she displays to the astonished attendant
the pocketbools, which had been hidden
from the reach of the vcnturesome
thief. 1t is not pretty, this device, but
it is necessary and effective.

SUMMER WRAP AND JACKET.
summer garment, cloth jacket, which
will be very popular. The jacket indi-
Gated in the picture is close fitting, of
myrtle green cloth, and it has revers,
flaps, collar and cuffs of dark green vel
vet to match. 1t takes one and five
eighths yards of cloth, fifty-two inches
wide and One-half yard of velvet. 1t
is fastened with hooks and eyes and
trimmed with two rows of small buttons
just above and below the waist. This
jacket presents very tasteful, stylish
appearance.
IN SPRING SUITS
there is very attractive model of blue
gray faced cloth of light weight. There
is a pleating of cloth round the foot of
the foundation skirt, which is wholly
covered elsewhere by a full Overskirt.
This is put in full at the belt, and falls
in hollow box pleat on each side near
the front. When worn in the street
there is coat of the same shade, but
heavier texture. The reverS are of dark
sapphire blue velvet, and there is velvet
collar and cuffs. In the house single
breasted, plain postillion basque is worn.
Another tailor-made suit that is very at
tractive is of very dark-green vigOgne,
braided with black and green cord. The
skirt is pleated on the sides, but plain
in front, and Ornamented on the pleatS
by rows of cOrd-work in fern designs.

HORRIBLE EXPLOSION.

Three Men Killed and Two Others Injured
by the Accident,
HOPKINS, Mo-, Jan. 6.-Onc Of the most
deplorable and fatal accidents ever happen.
ing iii this county occurred yesterday after.
noon about four o'clock. The scene Of the
accident is in Nodaway County, about
twelve miles north Of Maryville, and about
two miles south of this place. The boiler Of

slightly scaldihg his son. Marion Fiddler.
These are all who were in the mill at the

200 yards, cutting off trees nearly a foot
through In It's course. The other half Of
the boiler was thrown 200 yards in the OPP

KANSAS STATE NEWS.
A Railroad Deciston,

The Board Of Railroad Commissioners re-.
Gently rendered the following decision in
the matter of the complaint Of the citizens
OF Neosho Rapids, Melvern and Quenemo
vs.. the Southern Kansas Railroad company !:
ION July 6, there were filed petitions Of
each of the above towns requesting the
board to use their influence with the res=
pondent company to run two trains each
way daily on the Southern Kansas between
Ottawa and Emporia, making the round
trip each day. The number of petitions
and the size and importance of the towns
from whetscr they eams havs led us to 4
very careful investigation OF the situation
in order to accommodate said committees if
we could see our way clear to do so without
injustice, but as yet We are unable to see
how we can reasonably make an order di-
recting the operating on that line of an ad-
ditional train. A report of the auditor of
the Kansas City & Emporia railroad from
Ottawa to Emporia, for the nine months
ended September So 1888, shows the total
expenses to have been s5O.64S.s s. Total
earnings for same period, s33, 101.99. De-
felt. 81 ,546s7. In view of the present con-
dition of the earnings and expenses of said
road we cannot justly require the company
to run and operate al additional train at the
present time"

The Stewart Estat to.

NEW YORK, Jan. 5-The case of Sarah
Branagh against William P. Smith, form.
err coachman of the late A. 7. Stewart, has
been pending in the United States Circuit
Court for months. The plaintiff is
Irish, and claims to be the sole
heir of the Stewart estate. General
Benjamin F. Butler is her counsel
1t is claimed that Mrs. A L. Stewart gave
a house in East Thirty-tifth street to Smith
in return for his signing Stewards name tc
the paper which was probated as his will.
The plaintiff claims to have a number Of
letters from Stewart proving her relation
ship. She brought an action for Smiths
eJectmcnt from the Thirty-tifth street
house. Her amended complaint OF
September 90, 1886, shows that
Stewart died interstate April 10, 1876, seized
Of the premises in question, and that she is
the heir and next of kin. The defendant
iemurred to the complaint on the ground
that it failed to state facts constituting q
cause for action, and Judge Wallace to
lay, in his decision, sustained the demur
rer, but gave plaintiff an opportunity to
amend the complaint upon the payment OF

KANSAS CITY, Jan. 6-The Times in re-
| ferring to the evidence for the defense
| in the trial of Hamilton yesterday
! at Wyandotte, says: Some one has been
! doing the most phenomenal kind Of lying in
| the Hamilton sase ut Wyandotte. Mayor
Hannah and Sheriff rutsesan Of Wyan-
| dotte went on the stand yesterday and
swore that Brother Alfred the now f:i'
nous detective, was liar. and three OF
| HamlltOn's former companions were equally
certain under oath that Vossen had lied
when he made his confession to the court
and jury. sBrothet Aired swOre that
Sheriff Fnrgasoh bad given bin the Il. OF
l.. grip and that Mayor Hannah,
believing him to be special envoy from
Powderly, had promised to aid him III
getting the accused train wreckers beyond
reach Of the law and for that purpose had
driven over to Wyandotte in his buggy to
find the men now under Indictment. The
mayor and the sheriff gave him the lie di-
feet. FOssef, who turned States evidence,
said that Hamilton stood guard while the
spikes were being pulled and that Geers
and Leary were there. Three friends Of
Hamilton came to the front yesterday after
noon and gave Vossen the lie circumstan-
tlal the circumstances appearing in their
testimony. 1t is as clear rs day TO
any one, then, that either Brother
Alfred and Vossen or Mayor Hannou,
Sheriff Furgason and Hamiiton's three
friends have been economizing the truth to
the extent Of parsiniony, and it looks now,
unless the State introduces strong evidence
n rebuttal, as if it will rest with the jury to
determine whether it was more to the inter-
est of Brother Alfred and VOssen to con-
coct story than it was for Mayor Harmon
to deny the very serious charges brought
against him, or for the knights of Labor
who testified to swear falsely to save
member of the order. John Leary,
brother of one of the accused
men, and Thomas Feeney, also railroad
man, swore to an albi for Hamilton, and
Jacob Borden, an engine cleaner, and John
Dolan, former railroad employee. swore to
alibis for Geers and Leary. All except
Borden are Knights of Labor. Feeney was
by far the best material witness put On the
stand by the defense and his testimony was
mistaken by an adrOit and severe crO:s-ex-
animation by Mr.. Waggoner. The testi-
mony Of the foregoing four men was IN di-
rect conflict with the testimony of Vosscn.
Altogether the day was one of the most in
tercsting of the trial, and the interest was
not lesscned by numerous little tits be-
tween the counsel.

had brought her two sisters to school in a
buggy and was returning alone to her
home, near this city, at the time. After ac-

MISCELLANEOUh

AT meeting held recently at Annapolis
Nd, OF the directors Of the Chesapeake &
Ohio canal, the report showed that the
company was in a bad way financially, and
that unless aid could be procured from
either the State or the Government the
canal would have to be closed. The canal
runs from Cumberland. Md, to Alexandria
Va, and has never been paying property
THE port of Baltimore was virtually
closed on the 5th. There had not been an
arrival except of some day steamboat and q
few oyster boats, and none could get
through the ice except heavy steamers.
The ice extended down the river and into
Chesapeake bay, distance of forty miles.

on the morning of the 4th. He was still
suffering from rheumatic pains but seemed
to be improving steadily.
The north end of the new addition to
Pillsbury elevator at Minneapolis, Mimi,
which has recently been added to the ele-
vatOr, fell in. Over 10000 bushels of No.

The roof was still hanging. Several men
who were working about the elevator es-
capped without injury.
A CHAMBER in the Peerless slope portion
of the Henry Clay colliery, owned by the

pany, was discovered to be burning on the
9th. The fire was increasing rapidly and
defied all efforts to get it under control
Frequent explosions of gas were occurring.
Four men had been severely burned. The
loss can not now be estimated.
The Knights of Labor in New York said
that the reported decision of dis
trict assembly No. "A, of Chicago, taking
back all the hard things said of Powderly,
will make no difference in the demand for

THE New York Supreme Court re-
Gently decided that baby life insurance
WAS illegal. The precise ground of the
decision was that children can not be
insured because they are incapable of
making contracts, but it is fact that
the knowledge that the death of an
infant will be monetary benefit to its
parents or guardians has too otter re-
duccd the care which would otherwise
be bestowed upon it, and thus infantile
mortality has been increased.

The Nebraska Lepislature.

LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 6.-Yesterday was a
very quiet one in Legislative circles. The
organization was completed and subordinate
positions filed. The House got to work
very slowly, as there were a great many
new members, and the Speaker did not
NOV with great celebrity. The first bill in
troduced provided for two inuges in the
Fourth Judicial district. Tie second was
for the repeal of the existing law creating a
railway commission. The latter bill will
call out much discussion, and a strong ef-
fort will be made to secure its passage.
The anti-monopoly element is the one which
seems to favor the repeal The more intel.
ligent opinion is that the existing law viii
be amended and improved.
